EDMserver Report file

The EDMserverReportFile will record all major events from the EDMserver.  The directory of the EDMserverReportFile can be specified by the EDMserver command line option "-rd".

Example:

 -rd"c:/EDM/databases/" .

This directory can also be specified by setting the EDMconfigurationVariable

EDM_SERVER_REPORT_FILES_DIRECTORY

through the supervisor command

System Adm > Set Config Parameter

before the EDMserver opens the actual EDMdatabase.

Important:

If no directory for the EDMserverReportFile is defined, the EDMdatabaseLocation will be the directory for the EDMserverReportFile.  The name of the file will be "EDMserverPortxxxx.txt" where the "xxxx" is the port number used by the actual EDMserver.

Example: "EDMserverPort9090.txt"

The EDMserverReportFile will grow until it is "manually" deleted, i.e., all new recording will be appended to the file.  Example of events recording:

  • Start of EDMserver,
  • Stop of EDMserver
  • when it is stopped by a "TERMINATE_SERVER" command.
  • Name of actual EDMdatabase.
  • Normal and abnormal termination of EDMappServers.
  • Start of EDMappServer
  • etc.

 

The EDMserverReportFile can only be read by the "superuser" or by users providing the password of the "superuser".  The EDMsupervisor command "RemoteSystems>SystemAdm.>GetServerFile",  the EDMinterface functions  edmiRemoteGetServerFile and edmiGetServerFile, and the EDMexpressX function xpxGetServerFile are the available operations to read the EDMserverReportFile.
